Very cool. I want one.

I bought an Osprey Farpoint for my Japan trip. It works great for day hikes, but I need something like this for overnight, multiday hikes...

Thanks! I think the H2O pocket is for one of these (sold separately).

Wow, 36 bucks is a nice price compared to a Camelbak. It'd be even cooler if they just went ahead and included it with the pack...

Sweet. Has the stock been redone? The action and stock look to be in much better shape than the barrel. What's the story on this gun?

lol they're just napkins - they've fooled everyone who has looked at them in real life so far! If you look closely you can see how fake they look around the edges, there's no bleed.

Flare gun is real, though, I don't know anything about it (or what a stock even is), I just liked the look of it, and it wasn't particularly expensive. Going to hang it somewhere.

It does work apparently. The thing that goes back and forwards, not the trigger, but the thing that hits the thing that makes the flare go is still there.

The hammer is the thing.

It'd be interesting to know the age and make of it...

Oh, I also hung out with Nina and Louise of Veruca Salt last week. They were here in Toronto for a show. Nina's hot, I accidentally touched her bra strap and now I will never wash my hand.

I'm gonna guess it's a WW1 era Verey (sometimes spelled Very) flare gun. The grip certainly looks like one, but the long ass barrel extention thing is a bit strange.

Cool stuff in any case. Where did you get it..?

A nice piece syp0s and I like the bit about the money/notes in the box too.

:arrow: obsidian, I had to Google " Nina and Louise of Veruca Salt" to appreciate their talent :D
